With every passing day the mood will grow more festive and expectations more unbearable. Planning is important. Some things come first - the other follow later. Be ready not to get tired too soon. Your children are watching your eyes and your attitude. Grow merry gradually. Happy holidays!<br /><br /><img src="https://www.dreamwidth.org/tools/commentcount?user=ban616&ditemid=856" width="30" height="12" alt="comment count unavailable" style="vertical-align: middle;"/> commentstag:dreamwidth.org,2015-12-26:2474324:592ban616 @ 2016-09-16T12:19:002016-09-16T09:21:51Z2016-09-16T09:21:51Zpublic0There are people who do not want to listen to anything. They have read and they have seen and they already know. They interrupt you in the middle. Answer them. I admit that what I am going to tell you will not be new. But I may formulate it using different choice of words. This will be an experience in enriching your vocabularly. Besides - talk is not only means to convey information. It is one of the pleasant ways of spending time together. When the time for more pleasant ways has yet to come. Or not to come.<br /><br /><img src="https://www.dreamwidth.org/tools/commentcount?user=ban616&ditemid=592" width="30" height="12" alt="comment count unavailable" style="vertical-align: middle;"/> commentstag:dreamwidth.org,2015-12-26:2474324:403New Year2015-12-26T10:40:37Z2015-12-26T10:44:23Zpublic2The New Year is approaching. People are going to meet it with different attitudes.There are those who say." I will not celebrate at all. A little more tasty food, a slight drink and going to sleep at 1 o'clock." This shows a general pessimistic predisposition. Inability to insert in itself a mood of festivity.It reguires certain craft and skill.The holiday is not a calendar day. It is our capacity to draw out the particular day and render it joyous. You should put your effort into it.You should prepare yourself to show merriment to other people even if you yourself do not feel it.It will be fake, false, not genuine merryment - but you at least will not spoil the others' joy.You should subordinate yourself to the funny mood of the company and your initial blues may disappear. It will be coerced joy.But it is better than natural gloom. Make believe happiness.It will mark the transition in time.<br /><br /><img src="https://www.dreamwidth.org/tools/commentcount?user=ban616&ditemid=403" width="30" height="12" alt="comment count unavailable" style="vertical-align: middle;"/> comments
